I came, I thaw, i conquered

It is now officially winter. Welcome to Oregon's indecisiveness. We are stuck here from Dec. 21 until Mar. 20. We will perhaps get snow this year but, keep in mind, children: if we have snow days now, then the district may add that many more days onto the end of the school year, which means that many more days until summer. Is a shorter summer worth snow days? Keep your snow dances on the low, if you don't mind. The Scroll gives you all the best wishes and happenings. Take care, drive slower and more cautiously, and please start wearing your jackets (cough, cough-- underclassmen.) As always, The Scroll is a great resource to keep up-to-date on all things GPHS. If you are ever having a huge case of FOMO, then pop on by here and we'll keep you updated on all upcoming school events. Happy New Year, munchkins.

As always, take care of yourselves and...

Thanks for Scrolling!
